The Canon IXUS X-1 is a compact APS camera, introduced by Canon in November 1999. It is one of the querkier IXUS APS cameras, being designed for underwater use. The body has a large viewfinder, shutter release button and best shot selector dial for use whilst wearing diving equipment. The film and battery doors, and the date/time/message setting and mid-roll rewind buttons are hidden inside a hinged base which is waterproofed by an orange (rectangular) o-ring and a very positive catch.
The IXUS L-1 name was used in Europe; in America, it was called the ELPH Jr, and in Japan, IXY 310.
Power comes from a CR2 3v battery.
